A multi-stemmed, suckering shrub with large ivory flower spikes in June and July above giant, dark green foliage. A interesting and unique plant with yellow fall color. Could be used as a specimen or mixed into the shrub border. Outstanding option for naturalizing at the woods edge or creating a visual screen in the landscape. Resistant to deer and rabbits. This surprisingly adaptable plant is tolerant of clay soils, wet soils, and shade.
